Minolta X-300 Manuel utilisateur
MINOLTN
Your Minolta X-300 is an easy-to-use
microcomputerized single-lens-reflex
(SLR) camera
with
quartz control of mechanical
sequences
and shutter speed,
providing lasting
accuracy
and years
of
enjoyment.
In its aperture-priority auto-exposure(AE) mode ("AUTO" on the camera),
the X-300 auto-
matically sets
the precise
shutter speed
for correct exposureaccording
to the in-camera
meter at
the apertureyou selected.An AE lock can be used
to hold a meter reading
andthen readjust
the
framing
beforereleasing
theshutter.Auto control ismaintained
even
when usingmirror lenses
and
close-upaccessories
such
asbellows-not possible
with shutter-priority AE systems.
Creative
flexibility existsin the X-300's match-LED/full-metered
manual mode: For correct
exposure
at the meteredvalue,
simply adjust
aperture
and/pr shutter
speed
to alignblinking and
glowing LEDs in the viewfinder.Or you can merely refer to these LEDs-or totally disregard
them-when making
your own settings.
Flash photography is also simple: just attach a Minolta X-series
Auto Electroflash,
adjust
aperture,
and shoot. Flash-ready
signalis given
in the viewfinder,
andthe shutteris
automatically
set
for propersync at 1/60 sec.
The X-300 can be used
with Minolta's wide range
of accessories,
suchaswideangle,
telephoto,
and
zoom lenses,
Motor Drive
1,Auto WinderG,Wireless
ControllerlR-l, and
much more.
Before using lenses,flashes,
or other accessoriesmade by companies
other than Minolta,
attach
them to the camera
and makesure
they function properly by taking test photographs.
